Isn't it a legitimate question? We have special protection for under represented groups. So when the dominant group starts taking the identity of underrepresented groups and coopting their protections, they are no longer protected. The two things are at odds with each other.

Re: Show HN: Redbean – Single-file distributable web server
#242I keep getting segfaults in running the executable, only after zip ... I know this is x86_64, and have an am64 system. Does this only run on intel and arm architectures? Does this use the same exploit in memory that spectre used for intel processors?
Re: Show HN: Redbean – Single-file distributable web server
#243I really like your view of the world, that programs should be portable, tiny, and just work. The slamming of so much functionality into a zip file is inspiring. Would it be possible to do something similar with Free Pascal, allowing the recreation of something like Turbo Pascal, except really, really portable .com output?
Author here. Absolutely. I used to love Turbo Pascal and Delphi when I was younger. If Free Pascal uses GNU LD.BFD or LLVM LLD when it links programs, then all you'd need to do is is configure it to use cosmopolitan.a when linking system call functions like read(), write(), etc. See https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan Another option is if Free Pascal wants to write all the system call support from scratch, then doin…

Can someone explain this to me like I'm a 31 year old?
I've been programming since before you were born... and this is the most impressive hacking feat I've ever seen. A single executable, that doubles as a valid ZIP file, that you can put a complete website into, also doubles as a valid executable on Windows, Mac, Linux. The build infrastructure is a complete reworking of C to make it far more portable than even K&R thought possible. I probably wouldn't have believed it…

Since I can't upvote your Show HN twice, I'll upvote this comment. I learned something interesting tonight from your websites. Thanks! chibicc is a really fun idea! If I was in college, I would take a compiler course from you. Taken from your README: "chibicc is developed as the reference implementation for a book I'm currently writing about the C compiler and the low-level programming. The book covers the vast topic…
chibicc is actually written by Rui Ueyama. Github: https://github.com/rui314/chibicc Previous HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24676851
So I would edit my comment to say: I'd love to take a compiler course from Rui, and a systems course from jart.

That's what I get for browsing HN on my phone late at night.

#248Hmm, somehow I knew Justine is a 'transwoman' by this feat. Lucky guess I suppose... Question: if all the high achieving women in tech end up being 'transwomen', is that a step forward or backward for women in tech? Will 'transwomen' be able to take advantage of hiring privileges given to normal women? If so, won't this effectively shut normal women out of tech even more? I think trans/self identifying people should…
